Remote application that accesses the object model (MOSS)

I am trying to run an windows app using the sharepoint API(new SPSIte(url)) to access the Sharepoint site.

But this win app runs at a location which has no sharepoint but inthe same domain as the sharepoint server.

when I try run this SPSite site =new SPSite("http://...") it throwsan error>>>>>>>>>>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The Web application at http://...could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. Ifthe URL should be serving existing content, the system administratormay need to add a new request URL mapping to the intendedapplication.>>>>>>>>>>>>Is it not possible to use the MOSS Object model from remote servers?Is webservices the only option?

Is there a MOSS dev pack I can install which can help me with thisapp?

...and yes, the OM can only run on the server, for remote operations wemust use web Services. If you cannot find an OOTB web service to dowhat you want, you can write your own web service using the OM, thenhave your client connect to that.
